Fkn hell man.. I would be giving those dodgy pricks a call, and letting loose..Daniel2019 wrote:Removed intake manifold and nipped up rear rocker cover bolts. They weren't super loose but rear rocker or cam seal is leaking. Gonna see how it goes now and if not looks like my 5,000km old engine is being pulled apart to do cam seals...

Re: Daniel's Rookie DIY FTO Build!
Meh, no way I'm taking it back to those fking monkeys anyway
c**nts took six months to put a f**king engine together.. I can have an engine stripped and put back together in a day with enough red bull, and I'm not even an engine builder. Or even a qualified mechanic for that matter.

My engine is leaking like a siv at the moment and I have replaced every f**king seal. My gearbox also has a hole in the casing. I dont even know what I should do. There's so much oil is pretty much 3 quarters the way down the underside of the car.

Yeah, or be a good car owner and fix it...
Pisses me off when people don't take care of their cars.
Have had numerous Mazda 2s come into work with 500k+ on them.
Matt, clean your engine with a bunch of brake cleaner and start again.. I had a bunch of oil everywhere, thought it was a cam seal, turned out to be just rocker cover not nipped up tight enough on the rear bank.

No Daniel im pretty sure its pissing out of every single f**king seal. Also I have a hole in my gearbox casing. Inspecting a new car tomorrow. Can't not have a daily anymore. I do take care of my car also thank you very much. Its just been a f**king lemon from the very beginning and im wasting my time fixing it.

Re: Daniel's Rookie DIY FTO Build!
Never said you didn't. Was more pointing at Shhtuart that just said just put up with it
Just swap your motor out for a low km one? Surely Shane-o's sh*t shop can sort one out for you. Spend a weekend swapping motors and you're cheering.
But yeah I'm the same.. looking into VR4s, eggbeaters or an MPS 6.

No engine swaps no gearbox swaps. Just getting a different car and going to leave it for a bit and come back to it and hook in.

Yeah, don't buy a low k, you'll probably just spin a BEB like me.

+1, my POS is running well too. Think I fixed that big oil leak too. Getting it up on the hoist tomorrow to find out.
Martin why do the cars work when we're apart?
